Concert in the Vines with Heartwood

Heartwoodis the new and perfect pairing of award-winning singer-songwriters Jack Connolly and Genevieve Charbonneau from our own Cowichan Valley. Jack and Genevieve are outstanding performers in their own right, but when their songwriting talents, charisma and musical chops are combined, the result is roots and folk magic. The duo are joined by a band for this special evening of music.

Kick-off Event, August 23rd: Start the weekend off right and join all the wineries for our evening tasting event at Shawnigan Lake School.

Winery Touring, August 24th – 25th: Spend the rest of the weekend self-touring Cowichan’s fabulous wineries with map and passport in hand. Visit the wineries and collect stamps to fill the passport. Collect all the stamps and you can enter the draw for a grand prize!

Tickets will be available for purchase on the Tourism Cowichan website closer to the event date, or simply purchase a festival glass and passport at your first stop and keep it with you. This glass is your ticket and entitles you to 3 free tastings at all 11 participating wineries!

I seriously can’t think of anything more romantic then a day-trip to BC Wine Country to enjoy tastings, stroll the vineyards and enjoy quality time with your loved wine.

This weekend, the Scenic Sip wineries of Lake Country have made it so easy for you to do just that!

Each of the 6 participating wineries are offering a special wine pairing experience along with tastings. And, in lieu of tasting fees, wineries are accepting donations for the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

The event is happening on February 9 and 10 from 11am-4pm. Participating wineries include:

Ancient Hill

Blind Tiger Vineyards

The Chase *brand new, plan for lunch here

Ex Nihilo

50th Parallel *renovated tasting room, a must stop in our books!
